About Me

I love problem solving!

My name is Laurel Younis. I'm a passionate about creating community, when I'm not coding you'll often find me heading a social project, and recruiting volunteers to help out my local community one of my favorite volunteer experiences has been with Girls Who Code.
I have spent my entire career solving complex problems for businesses of all sizes. I am always thinking about code and ways technology can help businesses. This often leads me to solve my coding problems while I'm doing yoga, jogging, learning a new skill set, reading new books on optimization techniques and upskilling your life.
